Episode 5 Thoughts:
So, we just lost the Auction Immunity challenge. In all honesty, we all in one way or another wanted this to happen for various reasons. For starters, going into merge 5 deep would put a big ass target on our backs. Secondly, going to tribal before merge would allow us to test out loyalties and see where everyone's head is at. I am ready for a big ass move to be made and I think we have the numbers to pull this out. Our original target (MY original target) has always been David, since I know he has brought up my connections to the other 2 tribes on daily basis to both Vanessa and Kyle, however, him having the dang safety net kind of fucked that up for all of us. The next best thing to do at this point is get rid of his butt buddy, MAX. I do somewhat trust Max so this sucks that it has to be him who goes over David, but that's just how this game works. Myself, Vanessa, and Kyle have been a core3 since the very very beginning, and I intentionally made sure to make this alliance, because I know how important loyalties and social relationships are, which require time. So, when David and Max decide it's a good idea to get Kyle into a "final 3" group with them, it makes them look sketchy as fuck and desperate for a vote. This is exactly what I wanted to happen! I think making that core3 "MeanGirls" chat so early on into the game is what's going to get us really far into the game. I trust Kyle and Vanessa, we have shared a whole lot of information amongst the three of us and have talked mad crap about 99% of the cast behind the bushes, lol. I am looking at mid-game right now, and my goal is to position myself in a way that I have strong connections from all angles, which I currently do. I did NOT want to go into the merge with both MAX and DAVID, so having to cut one of them now, I think is extremely beneficial for my future game. That's one less person after me! As much as I hate to say it, we needed to go to Tribal today to fully test these loyalties, even though I'm 99% sure we are tight, you never fucking know with these people. But if this vote goes according to plan, then Max will be voted out and the blame will be put on Kyle and not myself or even Vanessa. I look forward to the upcoming merge (whenever it may be), because the people that I made close relationships and alliances with, are all pretty much still in the game (aside from Evan). I know that Me/Khaya/Mike trio keeps coming up a lot too in conversations, so I am consistently throwing Mike's name out there as a potential threat for our game to both Vanessa and Kyle. And with the argument during the second immunity challenge between Mike and Vanessa, it makes it really easy for me to plant the seed that Mike is a big threat and liability for our game moving forward. I am very happy that Khaya and Emily (and even Lila) are safe, because those are 3 people I plan on getting back with and targeting the stronger people!! *mwuahahaha*
The RAT tribe, is a big threat both individually and as a tribe for me. Yes, I was close to Gloria, Mike, and Patrick but I'm certain they formed close bonds amongst the 3 of them, so Vanessa and I would be bottom of their totem pole if we were to reunite with them. This is why I think it is crucial for me to convince both Kyle and Vanessa that our odds are much better if we stick with Lax tribe, with the girls. Finally, Vanessa and I both purposely went for the items that we felt would most help our alliance, and I think this will come in VERY handy, especially Vanessa's power of being the sole vote in an event of a tie. This could very well happen if it is a 6 on 6 vote during the merge, this would yet again give us the upper hand and we'd be able to decide who leaves.
At last, I think I need to be doing what I've been doing, which is making close relationships with people and positioning myself in a way that I am not on anyones radar, and If I am then they need to go (David/Max). The 4Horseman is long dead in my book, which consisted of me/mike/max/david. This was solidified after Kyle told me that David brought my name up for a possible boot in the midst of Challenge 2. Lets do this, I'm stoked for whats to come!
